Corey Cambridge shares stories from the world’s most popular podcasters as host of Other People’s Podcasts (OPP), but in a new custom content video from Ancestry and the New York Times‘ in-house branded content studio T Brand, he’s digging into his own family’s history to make sure their stories are preserved.

 “Tomorrow’s never guaranteed and these stories just die,” Cambridge said in the nearly five-minute film. “They die with people.”

The first in a five-part series called “Record of Resilience,” the video chronicles Cambridge’s efforts to use Ancestry to examine his family tree.
